Turbonetics makes a good kit that is a safe amount of boost (8psi) Here is a link http://www.turbokits.com/GS300_turbo_kits.html
Kinda pricy though

Instead of buying a kit, you should look for the parts of a turbo kit from different manufacturers and purchase them seperately to mkae sure you get the best of the best for each part. You really don't want to cheap out a turbo application because it's just going to screw you over in the end if that's what you choose to do.

You may want to check this out too. A good guy over at ClubLexus installed his own turbo and did it step by step with instructions and pictures. Seems like a great guy. Give it a read.

XSPower makes a decent kit www.clubna-t.com , swift racing , pfc makes a good kit. or piece one together. I have the xspower but I'm gonna piece together a bigger turbo over the winter.

Well you can get the XSPower kit and use a Apexi Neo and still use your stock ecu and injectors but need a boost controller to keep you under wraps to about 7psi...The SRT kit is a complete kit that has everything you need included alot of IS guys run the SRT kit

for the GS go with HKS. very expensive but very reliable. HKS is a very reputable company and they sell complete kits.

for the LS you have to custom build one. not enough LS owners are interested in turbo and the 1st gen is and old car so there probly will not be a kit unless someone builds one. go to lextreme.com so check out his build.
